No my question was 'does splash go through static objects?' -- as long as it doesn't, I'm sure I'll be able to survive attack by at least single-player vehicles, as long as I have an obstacle.
I ask that because in other games, like DAoC, splash damage was purely distance-based, so it would go through anything.
As long as Planetside isn't that way, I feel good about my chances.
I mean, I can't see that Vanu hoverbike 0wning the player that movie was being recorded by. It has to be facing you to attack you, and it doesn't appear to be able to hover sideways (vehicular strafing) . . . the same issues apply for almost any single-person vehicle (except for the planes, they can hover sideways right? still, for reasons mentioned, the infantry would probably survive the encounter).
AAAAARGH I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS GAME!!!!
